Digital nomad, meditator and animal lover

Hello!

I'm a digital nomad, meditator and animal lover. I've recently moved to the UK where I have family and friends and have been house sitting for nearly a year now. I am house sitting full time in London at the moment.

I grew up always having cats and dogs. I love both and the feeling is usually mutual. I also lived on a small farm until I was about 13 so I am very familiar with sheep and cows. I even had a few pet sheep that I trained to compete at "agricultural day" at school (a very kiwi thing I think). We also had guinea pigs and regular pigs for a while. I am very patient and gentle with animals which I think they feel and it helps them to open up to me. When I learned that house sitting almost always came with a pet I was quite excited!

I like to stay at meditation centers for a few months at a time and to contribute to them by joining the working program in which I help out for 4-6 hours every day in whatever way they need. I also facilitate introduction sessions and meditations there. I enjoy to feel that I am a part of the place and supporting the community. My main aim while I am there is just to have a big yes to everything. The work can be preparing food, cleaning, maintenance, gardening etc. They also have lots of cats and the occasional dog that I love to give attention to.

I also like to spend time in nature, at the beach, working on personal software and woodworking projects, climbing and connecting with amazing people.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or if you'd like to know more about me.

as first time users, and with a rambunctious border collie puppy, we were quite apprehensive before going away. from the video call beforehand, to the first meeting at the park, and until the last moment where we were back at home, gyan and tatum were perfect housesitters. we've immediately asked them to come back, and would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone else (ideally not at the same time we would like them!). the fellow dog-owners at the park were raving about them, the house was ...

Was great to have such a good house sitters, they took good care of our Velvet and we came back to a happy kitty and clean flat! Happy to say we reconfirmed Gyan and Tatum for another sitting!

Gyan and Tatum were fantastic. Both pets were very happy and calm when we came back and they sent us regular updates while we were away. Both pets looked very happy in the picture. Especially with our dog Pepys who is a bit anxious this was great to see. The flat was tidy and very clean when we got back. The plants looked happier than I left them. Gyan and Tatum were great at communicating and thankfully very flexible with our late-night return. They'd be welcome back any time!

Minnie and Robyn loved Gyan! He gave them lots of attention, cuddles and grooms which kept them very happy. Gyan sent updates and photos and let me know how everything was going. He won Robyn over and she ended up sleeping with him on the pillow which she is very choosy about who she does this with!! Would have Gyan back again and we hope he can come back soon. Highly recommend as an honest, trustworthy reliable sitter :)

Gyan was great to communicate with in advance of the stay and clear about his experience and how the house sit was suitable for him. I felt very comfortable leaving Humphrey in his care and entrusting our home to him. He kept us updated with messages and photos and on our return baked bread and left gifts! I would recommend Gyan as a house sitter.
